Safe use of Artificial Intelligence on EU market
EUFIRE 2025
Dear Madam/Sir,On behalf of the Organizing Committee, we are glad to invite you to present your research results at the International Conference “EU FInance, REgulation and Business EUFIRE 2024” organized at Alexandru Ioan Cuza University of Iaşi (Romania), on the 9th and 10th of May 2025, focused on the Safe use of Artificial Intelligence on EU market.
Artificial Intelligence is present in all aspects of our lives, its importance as a tool for better functionality of the EU market being a self-explanatory reality. Continuing the line of innovative regulation and pioneer rules with global impact, the adoption of the EU Artificial Intelligence Act has the vocation to affect every pattern of economic integration, changing the perspective on the topics previously addressed in the debates of the EUFIRE conferences series. While the EU AI regulation is pending the term of its coming into force, scholars and researchers are invited to bring their most valuable input to investigate the present status of using AI as an effective and safe tool, by implementing the most productive analyses for productive debate and wide dissemination of their research results. The diverse opinions within academia, from the ones regarding the AI act as the greatest EU legal project, to the eurosceptic view focused on the threats that are not fully observed yet, the conference presents the opportunity for productive presentation and in-depth investigation on this very fast developing topic.
The conference aims to offer the framework for debating the main challenges faced within the European Union and globally, emphasizing the AI regulatory perspective for the financial sector, in particular, and for the business sector, in general. The event will reunite academics, researchers, and practitioners, both from Romania and abroad, and will provide the necessary background for the development of constructive analysis and productive dialogue. Participation at the sessions of the event will be open to academics, researchers, students, and practitioners with interests in EU law, economics, and public administration, to present the results of their scientific work and/or to attend/participate in the discussions. In response to the actual demand for fruitful academic events, the conference organizing committee proposes the on-site format, guaranteeing the opportunity for all the participants to bring up their research results for debate, both in plenary sessions and in panel discussions. The dialogue between young researchers and reputable scholars is kindly encouraged.
Contributors are encouraged to approach one of the main topics of the conference (but not limited to):
-
